improved,

The ID. and p. 5. C.. Society. composed
of n number of the young people of Pa
latka, is quite fiourishing little organi-
zation. 1t is n literary and reading club,
and was organized for the instruction
and entertainment of the members. At
the meeting Monday night. the follow
ing essay was read by one of the young
lady members. whose age is away down
in the teens:
Time, all important, is fieeting and
never returns. Man can make good use
of his time. for he is endowed with a free
will. The young are in the period of ap-
premiership. their future depends upon
the way they spend the present. Let
them prepare for the battle of life, be
virtuous models of innocence, lovers of
good companions, assiduous in the cul-
ture of the mind and heart; then will
success be most certainly theirs.
MAN, in whatever sphere of life he
moves should be an active and virtuous
citizen, true to his fellow-men, to his
country, and above all. to his Maker; a
counselor to those in distress, q helper
to those in need, and father to the poor
and orphans.
